February builds on the momentum established in January, with the UK construction and demolition sector turning its attention to skills, sustainability, compliance and long-term delivery challenges. As project pipelines begin to firm up for the year ahead, February events offer a valuable opportunity to engage with sector leadership, training bodies and policymakers shaping industry standards.
For contractors, consultants, demolition professionals and sustainability specialists, February 2026 features several important dates that go beyond networking and focus on practical delivery and future-proofing.
NDTG Annual General Meeting 2026
📅 6 February 2026
📍 Resurgam House, Hemel Hempstead
The National Demolition Training Group (NDTG) AGM is a key fixture in the demolition calendar, bringing together training providers, contractors and industry representatives to review progress and set priorities for the year ahead.
Discussions typically focus on competence frameworks, safety standards, qualifications and skills development, areas that continue to come under increasing scrutiny across the demolition and wider construction sector. For demolition contractors and training professionals, the AGM provides early insight into regulatory and competency trends likely to influence operations throughout 2026.
IDE Spring Seminar 2026
📅 27 February 2026
📍 Venue TBC
Hosted by the Institute of Demolition Engineers (IDE), the Spring Seminar is a technical and knowledge-led event exploring the future direction of demolition practice. The 2026 seminar is expected to focus on sustainability, recycling, technological innovation and evolving best practice in demolition delivery.
For engineers, project managers and technical leads, the seminar offers valuable CPD opportunities and a forum for sharing lessons learned from complex and challenging projects.
Why February matters
February is often when strategy turns into execution. Training, compliance and sustainability priorities discussed at this stage of the year frequently shape how businesses approach delivery, procurement and workforce development over the following months.
With increasing emphasis on competence, environmental responsibility and modern methods, February’s events play an important role in preparing the sector for the demands of 2026.
